Ever since an early Obongjayar demo first surfaced on SoundCloud in 2016, it's been clear that Steven Umoh, the man behind the moniker, possesses a completely unique talent. Known to his friends simply as 'OB', the Nigerian-born, London-based musician pens stirring and spiritual lyrics, while commanding a distinctive voice that flits between rap, song and spoken word. With afrobeats, soul and hip-hop influences, he has created a bold, genre-defiant musicality. His debut full-length, 'Some Nights I Dream of Doors' represents a real levelling up for Obongjayar. Across twelve tracks, he deftly moves through diverse sounds and subcultures while navigating a wealth of personal and political topics.
